(NOT SO) Great Moments in Hot Bev History & SPRING BREAK JAMS
Flipping the script, today we're investigating SEVERAL NOT SO great moments in hot bev history. See I've got an axe to grind with TV actors the world over. WHY is it when characters in TV shows have coffee cups, it's VERY clear that they're empty? I thought I was crazy, but it appears I'm not the only one. There's even a hashtag (#emptycupawards) - thank you Myles McNutt. I'm really glad to have you all along for me on this journey of disappointment.
Hot Bevs - tomorrow 9 AM - Bring your own mug!
Now to brighten your day, our SPRING BREAK SPOTIFY PLAYLISTS!
